The country of Somalia participated in CutlassExpress 2018 at Camp Doraleh, Djibouti, from Jan 31 - 7 Feb, 2018.
This was the first time in almost 30 years that Somalia has participated in a multinational exercise outside its own borders. Cutlass Express 2018, sponsored by U.S.Africa Command (AFRICOM) and conducted by U.S. Naval Forces Africa, is an exercise designed to assess and improve combined maritime law enforcement capacity, promote national and regional security in East Africa as well as information sharing, planning and operating.

STORYLINE:
The UN's highest court on Wednesday upheld France's refusal to give Djibouti the records of an investigation into the 1995 death of a French judge, whose burned body was found in a ravine outside the capital of the former French territory.
The International Court of Justice rejected Djibouti's claims that France had violated two bilateral cooperation accords, and agreed with France that it had the right to withhold the file if it contained classified information.
It also rejected Djibouti's claims that France had illegally summoned President Ismael Omar Guelleh to testify in the murder case of Judge Bernard Borrel, and said the request had not violated presidential immunity or dignity.
Borrel's body was discovered in October 1995 about 50 miles (80 kilometres) from the capital.
Reports variously say he had been investigating money laundering or arms smuggling.
Borrel's wife, Elisabeth, has accused Guelleh of ordering her husband's death, which occurred more than three years before he took office, when he was head of the security forces.
An initial probe into his death concluded that Borrel committed suicide.
French authorities, under pressure from the judge's widow, opened their own investigation and found that murder could not be ruled out.
In refusing to hand over the investigative file, France said it contained secrets that could compromise state security and would "entail indirectly delivering French intelligence service documents to a foreign political authority."
Even an edited version was impossible, the court was told, because classified material "permeated the entire file."
The judges voted 15-1 France was justified in withholding the file.
The "Borrel file" has been a source of friction between France and the East African country, which Paris ruled until 1977.
Tensions rose further after the French judge investigating the case, SophieClement, summoned Guelleh while he was on a visit to France in 2005 to appear in her chambers the next morning for questioning.
News of the summons hit French news wires 21 minutes after the fax was sent to Djibouti's embassy in Paris, the court said.
The judges ruled the summons was not a treaty violation since it was not enforceable, but that the president was due an apology for the judge's "regrettable" procedures.
Guelleh rejected both that summons and another request two years later to undergo questioning.

According to UN estimates, nearly 100,000 people have fled Yemen since violence erupted there in March. Of those escaping the conflict, over 20,000 have sought refuge in the tiny East African nation of Djibouti, an authoritarian state located between Eritrea and Somalia seen as a beacon of stability in the region, largely due to its hosting of a US military base.
The Markazi refugee camp, located in the arid and dusty Obock region, plays host to many of those fleeing Yemen. Refugees can live in the tented camp, where the average June temperature varied between 111 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit (44 - 50 degrees Celsius). Otherwise they can pay cripplingly high rental costs for substandard living conditions in Djibouti City.
Following on from our coverage of the conflict in Aden, VICENews travels to Djibouti to discover the effects of the war on those forced to flee their homes and start anew.

The Republic of Djibouti is one of the several African countries located on the East African Rift System. Its geology also being influenced by Red Sea and Gulf of Aden ridges, Djibouti has been subject to strong volcanic and tectonic activity since 30 Million years. Such particular geodynamical situation gives the area a remarkable position for the development of geothermal energy.
In spite of geothermal studies and exploration drillings conducted since 1970 in several geothermal prospect zones, geothermal energy in Djibouti still remains to be developed.
Over the years, geothermal studies have discovered 13 strong prospects throughout the country. Priority sites such as AsalRift (Lac Assal) have revealed production temperatures of up to 360°C at 2000m depth.
Exploration and developments studies by the Djibouti Government as well as international cooperation and aid agencies such as World Bank and JICA, are currently ongoing in numerous priority sites exploration drilling in Hanle field is expected to start in mid-2017. Development drilling in Gale Le Goma fields is ongoing, while.
A number of electricity transmission line construction and upgrade projects have already been completed, such as the Djibouti-Ethiopia and Kenya-Ethiopia lines, which will help support geothermal development. A new geothermal law with more detailed regulations is also under preparation.
Djibouti Government is currently encouraging private sector investors to partake in Djibouti’s growing geothermal development effort. Numerous companies have already initiated ventures in the geothermal sector, including establishment of a geothermal drilling and well services company and initiation of an equipment manufacturing facility. In the meantime, Djibouti Government is continuing its studies to discover new geothermal fields, prove their resources and develop them to bankable levels.

July 06, 2018 - In the small east African nation of Djibouti, almost half of all men use khat as a stimulant. Chewing khat leaves produces similar effects to amphetamine use. Some 40% of the average household budget is spent on khat, a huge financial drain in a country where almost half the population is unemployed. Khat also creates severe health problems. Nevertheless, khat is legal. It’s a big money earner for the state, which has a monopoly on its sale. This situation impedes the government’s efforts to fight addiction to the drug. Our reporters went to Djibouti to find out more. This report was awarded the 2017 Rotary / FRANCE 24 prize for young video journalist.

Djibouti

Djibouti (/dʒɪˈbuːti/ji-BOO-tee; Arabic:جيبوتي‎Jībūtī, French:Djibouti, Somali:Jabuuti, Afar:Gabuuti), officially the Republic of Djibouti, is a country located in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Eritrea in the north, Ethiopia in the west and south, and Somaliland in the southeast. The remainder of the border is formed by the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden at the east. Djibouti occupies a total area of just 23,200km2 (8,958sqmi).

Home to around 620,000 inhabitants, the city contains over 70% of the nation's population. The settlement was founded in 1888 by the French, on land leased from the ruling Somali and Afar Sultans. During the ensuing period, it served as the capital of French Somaliland and its successor the French Territory of the Afars and Issas.

Known as the Pearl of the Gulf of Tadjoura due to its location, Djibouti city is strategically positioned near the world's busiest shipping lanes and acts as a refueling and transshipment center. The Port of Djibouti is the principal maritime port for imports to and exports from neighboring Ethiopia. Additionally, the city hosts a number of foreign embassies, and is the headquarters of many international organizations, non-profit organizations and companies. Djibouti-Ambouli International Airport is the main domestic airport, connecting the capital to various major global destinations.

Early life

Francis was born in Los Angeles, California. Francis has stated that his father, Robert Drew Francis, is an "alternative medicines doctor." He has made a recurring Internet joke about being unable to find his father. Francis has stated that he was very sheltered growing up, claiming that he did not know any swear words until he was 15. He also claims he could not watch TV unless he watched at least 2 hours of Sesame Street a day.

Career

Francis first rose to fame after gaining the attention of American producer Diplo and eventually collaborating on the song "Que Que", with featured Latin-pop artist Maluca.

International Court of Justice

The International Court of Justice (French:Cour internationale de justice; commonly referred to as the World Court or ICJ) is the primary judicial branch of the United Nations (UN). Seated in the Peace Palace in The Hague, Netherlands, the court settles legal disputes submitted to it by states and to provides advisory opinions on legal questions submitted to it by duly authorized international branches, agencies, and the UN General Assembly.

The Court's workload covers a wide range of judicial activity. After the court ruled that the United States's covert war against Nicaragua was in violation of international law (Nicaragua v. United States), the United States withdrew from compulsory jurisdiction in 1986 to accept the court's jurisdiction only on a case-by-case basis.Chapter XIV of the United Nations Charter authorizes the UN Security Council to enforce Court rulings. However, such enforcement is subject to the veto power of the five permanent members of the Council, which the United States used in the Nicaragua case.

It also rejected Djibouti's claims that France had illegally summoned President Ismael Omar Guelleh to testify in the murder case of Judge Bernard Borrel, and said the request had not violated presidential immunity or dignity.
Borrel's body was discovered in October 1995 about 50 miles (80 kilometres) from the capital.
Reports variously say he had been investigating money laundering or arms smuggling.
Borrel's wife, Elisabeth, has accused Guelleh of ordering her husband's death, which occurred more than three years before he took office, when he was head of the security forces.
An initial probe into his death concluded that Borrel committed suicide.
French authorities, under pressure from the judge's widow, opened their own investigation and found that murder could not be ruled out.
In refusing to hand over the investigative file, France said it contained secrets that could compromise state security and would "entail indirectly delivering French intelligence service documents to a foreign political authority."
Even an edited version was impossible, the court was told, because classified material "permeated the entire file."
The judges voted 15-1 France was justified in withholding the file.
The "Borrel file" has been a source of friction between France and the East African country, which Paris ruled until 1977.
Tensions rose further after the French judge investigating the case, SophieClement, summoned Guelleh while he was on a visit to France in 2005 to appear in her chambers the next morning for questioning.
News of the summons hit French news wires 21 minutes after the fax was sent to Djibouti's embassy in Paris, the court said.
The judges ruled the summons was not a treaty violation since it was not enforceable, but that the president was due an apology for the judge's "regrettable" procedures.
Guelleh rejected both that summons and another request two years later to undergo questioning.

According to UN estimates, nearly 100,000 people have fled Yemen since violence erupted there in March. Of those escaping the conflict, over 20,000 have sought refuge in the tiny East African nation of Djibouti, an authoritarian state located between Eritrea and Somalia seen as a beacon of stability in the region, largely due to its hosting of a US military base.
The Markazi refugee camp, located in the arid and dusty Obock region, plays host to many of those fleeing Yemen. Refugees can live in the tented camp, where the average June temperature varied between 111 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit (44 - 50 degrees Celsius). Otherwise they can pay cripplingly high rental costs for substandard living conditions in Djibouti City.
Following on from our coverage of the conflict in Aden, VICENews travels to Djibouti to discover the effects of the war on those forced to flee their homes and start anew.

The Republic of Djibouti is one of the several African countries located on the East African Rift System. Its geology also being influenced by Red Sea and Gulf of Aden ridges, Djibouti has been subject to strong volcanic and tectonic activity since 30 Million years. Such particular geodynamical situation gives the area a remarkable position for the development of geothermal energy.
In spite of geothermal studies and exploration drillings conducted since 1970 in several geothermal prospect zones, geothermal energy in Djibouti still remains to be developed.
Over the years, geothermal studies have discovered 13 strong prospects throughout the country. Priority sites such as AsalRift (Lac Assal) have revealed production temperatures of up to 360°C at 2000m depth.
Exploration and developments studies by the Djibouti Government as well as international cooperation and aid agencies such as World Bank and JICA, are currently ongoing in numerous priority sites exploration drilling in Hanle field is expected to start in mid-2017. Development drilling in Gale Le Goma fields is ongoing, while.
A number of electricity transmission line construction and upgrade projects have already been completed, such as the Djibouti-Ethiopia and Kenya-Ethiopia lines, which will help support geothermal development. A new geothermal law with more detailed regulations is also under preparation.
Djibouti Government is currently encouraging private sector investors to partake in Djibouti’s growing geothermal development effort. Numerous companies have already initiated ventures in the geothermal sector, including establishment of a geothermal drilling and well services company and initiation of an equipment manufacturing facility. In the meantime, Djibouti Government is continuing its studies to discover new geothermal fields, prove their resources and develop them to bankable levels.

July 06, 2018 - In the small east African nation of Djibouti, almost half of all men use khat as a stimulant. Chewing khat leaves produces similar effects to amphetamine use. Some 40% of the average household budget is spent on khat, a huge financial drain in a country where almost half the population is unemployed. Khat also creates severe health problems. Nevertheless, khat is legal. It’s a big money earner for the state, which has a monopoly on its sale. This situation impedes the government’s efforts to fight addiction to the drug. Our reporters went to Djibouti to find out more. This report was awarded the 2017 Rotary / FRANCE 24 prize for young video journalist.

Somalia participates in maritime law enforcement exercise in Djibouti

The country of Somalia participated in CutlassExpress 2018 at Camp Doraleh, Djibouti, from Jan 31 - 7 Feb, 2018.
This was the first time in almost 30 years that Somalia has participated in a multinational exercise outside its own borders. Cutlass Express 2018, sponsored by U.S.Africa Command (AFRICOM) and conducted by U.S. Naval Forces Africa, is an exercise designed to assess and improve combined maritime law enforcement capacity, promote national and regional security in East Africa as well as information sharing, planning and operating.

Djibouti

Djibouti (/dʒɪˈbuːti/ji-BOO-tee; Arabic:جيبوتي‎Jībūtī, French:Djibouti, Somali:Jabuuti, Afar:Gabuuti), officially the Republic of Djibouti, is a country located in the Horn of Africa. It is bordered by Eritrea in the north, Ethiopia in the west and south, and Somaliland in the southeast. The remainder of the border is formed by the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden at the east. Djibouti occupies a total area of just 23,200km2 (8,958sqmi).
